Chicago Ink Tattoo & Body Piercing

This place was so wonderful! Had called ahead from across town that I wanted to have my nose repierced and that we would be there about 10:30 p.m. . Due to construction, we were late getting there and arrived at 10:55 and she's still got me in! The facility was extremely clean she was a wonderful piercer very kind very courteous & clean I would go back to this place time and time again I would love to get a tattoo here next time I'm in the Chicago area!

I just took my daughter here for an advance ear piercing. The lady that did the piercing was very professional and kind. The environment is laid back, chill and very clean. I was impressed to see how the tattoo stations are setup with digital displays of the tattoo artist work. I will definitely return for piercing for myself and a tattoo. I highly recommend this establishment.

Everybody was so nice and had excellent customer service! I got a medusa piercing and the lady who did my piercing made me feel at ease and very comfortable. The place looks very clean as well. Definitely coming back!

Update: turns out they don’t use titanium!! My piercing was sinking because they used the L ring instead of with a back and I had to go to another shop who informed me that ring wasn’t titanium and it was indeed sinking in because they used the L ring. I want a refund.

I had to wait a little over and hour but, for a Saturday evening walk in, that wasn’t too bad. I got my nose pierced. I had very little engagement with front desk staff but, I’ll say from what little interaction I did have with them (young man), it’s typical cis het men working in tattoo shop vibes.. not very friendly and just to the point. The piercer was a young lady (I assume) and she was very nice. She was quick and clean with the piercing. I’d DEF go back for more piercings but, the vibe is a little too busy and masculine for me to ever feel comfortable being tatted there.

Just went here with my sisters to get piercings and had the BEST experience with Windy. I got my septum pierced and my sisters got their nose, flat, and belly button and Windy was very knowledgeable, sweet, and patient in answering all of our questions. 10 out of 10 recommend Windy and this business! Will definitely be back. Thank you Windy!

This is my 4th piece from Ruben Aguayo, check him on out IG @rubenaguayo_ink for his works. He's an expert at his craft, professional, friendly and extremely detail oriented. You bring your piece in, and he'll work with your art , with HIS STYLE and you won't be disappointed. He will give you suggestion on what works and what does not, and he is very honest about it. Ruben will not accept your piece if he feels it does not turn out well. If you want a bad a$$ looking piece of art, you have to walk in with an open mind. Just because you think something will look good on you doesn't mean your artist will think the same, they have seen enough to know what will or will not look good. Ruben is the PAPI for all my tattoos & will def come back for more :) FYI Ruben is very busy, you'll be looking at months in wait time so book ahead!

I’ve been to both their locations and i have to say they’re so professional clean and amazingly helpful. My first ever piercing other than my earlobes was an Industrial Ear piercing. My piercer was Itzel I went bold and apparently it’s one of the most painful to get in your ear. My piercer helped me out and would ask if i was okay every few seconds , she was an angel. This was three years ago and now I have a healthy healed Industrial. I went to the other location yesterday and got my Helix Ear piercing and Nose piercing done at the same time by Windy . The lady was so nice and would let me know what was going on at all times. Totally 10000/10 recommend both locations!

Rossmery did an awesome job on my septum. I was anxious about how much it would hurt but she made it quick and painless. It healed wonderfully. She was so sweet and patient, definitely come get pierced with her 🖤

Rosemary was absolutely wonderful! She is also full of expertise and a sweetheart. I will be going back if I decide to get more piercings. The shop is super clean and smells nice. So glad I went with my gut and came here for my nose piercing!

I got my tongue pierced by Itzel, they were wonderfully friendly and communicative about the process and what would be best for me with this piercing in an informative and kind way. A bad piercer can ruin an experience and I'm so glad that everyone here was warm and friendly, especially to someone who hasn't done a body mod like this before. 10/10!
